About Mother to Mother

The Mother to Mother Ministry began in September 1995 at St. John the Baptist Parish. It is:

• A Catholic women's group where mothers can come to know Jesus in a personal way;

• A place where women can freely express feelings on motherhood, blending together frustrations, successes, and experiences;

• A place where women will find emotional support during times of illness or death;

• A place where mothers help welcome mothers home with new babies.
